home in Tucson,Arizona.He moved there a few years ago,and I was eager to see his new place and meet his friends.My earliest memories of my father are a tall,handsome,successful man devoted to his work and his family,but uncomfortable with his children.As a child I loved him.He seemed unhappy with me unless I got straight As and unhappy with my boyfriends if their fathers were not as“successful”as he was.Whenever I went out with him on weekends,I used to struggle to think up things to say,feeling on guard.On the first day of my visit,we went out with one of my fathers friends for lunch at an outdoor caf.We walked along that afternoon,did some shopping,ate on the street table,and laughed over my sons funny facial expressions.Gone was my fathers critical(挑剔的)air and strict rules.Who was this person I knew as my father,who seemed so friendly and interesting to be around?What had held him back before?The next day dad pulled out his childhood pictures and told me quite a few stories about his own childhood.Although our times together became easier over the years,I never felt closer to him at that moment.After so many years,Im at last seeing another side of my father.And in so doing,Im delighted with my new friend.My dad,in his new home in Arizona,is back to me from where he was.56.Why did the author feel bitter about her father as a young adult?A.He was silent most of the

made it to the UK were green on the outside and,more often than not,hard with an unpleasant taste within.Then in 1966,the Del Monte Gold pineapple produced in Hawaii first hit our shelves.The new type of pineapple looked more yellowy-gold than green.It was slightly softer on the outside and had a lot of juice inside.But the most important thing about this new type of pineapple was that it was twice as sweet as the hit-and-miss pineapples we had known.In no time,the Del Monte Gold took the market by storm,rapidly becoming the worlds best-selling pineapple variety,and delivering natural levels of sweetness in the mouth,up until then only found in tinned pineapple.In nutrition(营养)it was all good news too.This nice tasting pineapple contained four times more vitamin C(维生素 C)than the old green variety.Nutritionists said that it was not only full of vitamins,but also good against some diseases.People were understandably eager to be able to buy this wonderful fruit.The new type of pineapple was selling fast,and the Del Monte Gold pineapple rapidly became a fixture in the shopping basket of the healthy eater.Seeing the growing market for its winning pineapple,Del Monte tried to keep market to itself.But other fruit companies developed similar pineapples.Del Monte turned to law for help,but failed.Those companies argued successfully that Del Montes attempts to keep the golden pineapple for itself were just a way to knock them out the market.60.We learn from the text that the new type at pineapple is _.A.green outside and sweet inside B.good-looking outside and soft inside C.yellowy-gold outside and hard inside D.a little soft outside and sweet inside 61.Why was the new type of pineapple selling well?A.It was rich in nutrition and tasted nice.B.It was less sweet and good for health.C.It was developed by Del Monte.D.It was used as medicine.62.The underlined word“fixture”in Paragraph 3 probably refers to something _.A.that people enjoy eating B.that is always present C.that is difficult to get D.that people use as a gift 63.We learn from the last paragraph that Del Monte _.A.slowed other companies to develop pineapples B.succeeded in keeping the pineapple for itself C.tried hard to control the pineapple market D.planned to help the other companies C It is often necessary to release a fish,that is,set it free after catching,because it is too small,or you just dont want to take it home to eat.In some cases,releasing fish is a good measure that will help keep fish variety and build their population size.The Department of Game and Inland Fisheries(DGIF)encourages fishermen who practice catch-and-release fishing to use a few simple skills when doing so.The advice provided below will help make sure that the fish you release will survive(存活)to bite again another day.When catching a fish,play it quickly and keep the fish in the water as much as possible.Dont use a net in landing the fish and release it quickly to prevent it from dying.Hold the fish gently.Do not put your fingers in its eyes.Dont wipe the scales(鱼鳞)off the fish because it might cause it to develop a disease and reduce its chance of survival.Remove your hook(鱼钩)quickly.If the hook is too deep or hooked in the stomach,cut the line and leave the hook in.The hook left inside will cause no serious problem to the fish.Take good care of the fish by moving it gently in water.Release the fish when it begins to struggle and is able to swim.Do not hold fish in a bucket or some other containers and later decide to release it.If you are going to release a fish,do so right away.With a little care and by following the suggestions given above,you can give the released fish a better chance of survival.64.People sometimes set a fish free after catching it because they _.A.dont want it to die B.hope it will grow quickly C.dont want to have it as food D.want to practice their fishing skills 65.Which of the following will probably make a fish ill?A.Taking

been lost?What remains and is it able to continue with the present speed of use?Wilson also points out the need to understand fully the biodiversity(生物多样性)of our earth.Wilson begins with an open letter to the pioneer in environment(环境)protection,Henry David Thoreau.He compares todays Walden Pond with that of Thoreaus day.Wilson will use such comparisons for the rest of the book.The problem is clear:man has done great damage to his home over the years.Van the earth,with human help,be made to return to biodiversity levels that will be able to support us in the future?Biodiversity,Wilson argues,is the key to settling many problems the earth faces today.Even our agricultural crops can gain advantages from it.A mere hundred species(物种)are the basis of our food supply,of which but twenty carry the load.Wilson suggests changing this situation by looking into ten thousand species that could be made use of,which will be a way to reduce the clearing of the natural homes of plants and animals to enlarge farming areas.At the end of the book,Wilson discusses the importance of human values in considering the environment.If you are to continue to live on the earth,you may well read and act on the ideas in this book.72.We learn from the text that Wilson cares most about _.A.the environment for plants B.the biodiversity of our earth C.the wastes of natural resources D.the importance
